[QUOTE="BKM, post: 1992337, member: 71899"] There are many good machines i suppose. I anneal with a Bench Source. When the brass has been too hot the neck tension is irregular. Zinc begins to burn out of the brass when the temperature is too high. The brass has to maintain a certain elasticity to hold the bullets consistently. With the Bench Source it easy to watch this take place as the brass begins to heat up. Try u some groups at long range (1000 or more) and see for urself. All my rifles are magnums. I have to anneal between every firing. Failure to do so will give a spike in velocity of approximately 25 fps While that doesn’t much matter at a couple hundred yds it’s detrimental at a thousand and beyond. The proof is on the targets.
